Faces on Friday

What an interesting journey this is - drawing a face each day. I can see some real improvement.

I think this is my best one of the week.
It actually looks like him AND captures his expression.

I can see areas that need improvement. I pulled out all my 3x5 faces and realized most of them have chins that are too short.

It feels good just to be able to see what's wrong now. It gives me the opportunity to know how to fix it.

Want to hear something crazy and fun? On the flight back I was doodling and my seat-mate said "you're an artist?" I said yes. He eventually asked if I could draw from a photo and if I could sketch his friend as a birthday gift. From a little iphone picture I did a fair (but not absolutely fantastic) drawing and handed it to him. He seemed pleased.
